Yikes more "tyranny of the majority" crap. The founders were slave owning, slave trading, slave raping white supremacist elitists. There is an underlying thrust to have a whole bunch of American citizen's votes not count. And those little states, the smallest of them...every one is over represented in the legislative branch and in presidential elections
What the elitist landowning slave trading founding fathers were most wary of was that the electorate, which they considered to be an ignorant mob, might elect a president who might do something that would disempower the elitist landowning slave traders.
